    Dark Gathering - Ch. 69 - Zero/New Generation

    Its a different entity for sure with no ego but they all had clear purpose, plus this chapter just established that in the spiritual realm it is a law of the jungle in the afterlife, be it demon, deity/god, ghosts, humans and so on. If you go and reread the Omake at the end of chapter 52, demon...

    Dark Gathering - Ch. 69 - Zero/New Generation

    You're correct. Gu is the term in Chinese and Kodoku is in Japanese. Both are essentially the same thing. Gu sorcery, also known as gu poison, is a venom-based poison associated with cultures of south China, particularly Nanyue. The traditional preparation of gu poison involved sealing several...

    Dark Gathering - Ch. 68 - Zero/First Battle

    In modern medical literature, polycoria is known as a pathological condition of the eye characterized by more than one pupillary opening in the iris. Although, some ancient writers in the west refer double pupil as “evil eye”. In Chinese mythology, double pupils are often associated with great...

    Dark Gathering - Ch. 68 - Zero/First Battle

    I wouldn't go so far as calling them inconsistencies. First, notice this line in my paragraphs? "That's what motivates them to fight in order to gain a substitute/piece of the caster to avoids getting caught up in a fight/crossfire between other similar captured ghosts." This sentence basically...

    By following that logic, Oiran and High Priest was also originally weak since they started off as a normal run-of-the-mill type of ghost. Remember that spirit/ghost/demon/deity/god in DG verse was just spiritual entities that was either weak or strong. Even extraordinary ghost like Taira was...

    Search out the concept of Gu/Kodoku, you will understand better than the explanation given here. In short, it is an ancient type of Chinese Sorcery where several venomous animals were put together in a sealed jar, letting them fight amongst each other until there's only 1 remaining left. The...

    Dark Gathering - Ch. 68 - Zero/First Battle

    Yep. The next physical volume was scheduled to come out in May/June. Can't remember though which arc exactly, probably somewhere around Volume 12, the arc of Shishimura and Marbas.

    Dark Gathering - Ch. 68 - Zero/First Battle

    From the conversation between Yayoi and Sachiko, we can assume it was the same black entities that herald the news of impending death. The very same one that appeared in F Park Ghost Granny case, they came from a crack in the sky(netherworld).

    So as expected, the accidents gave her a physical and mental reinforcement, while also getting spiritual knowledge from seasoned exorcist and various random people. Maybe in the future, she will encounter a Hyakki Yagyō(Night Parade of 100 Demons) in Tokyo and replenish the ghost in her absolute...

    Mieruko-chan - Vol. 12 Ch. 63

    Not yet. At least not for now, but I'm gonna bet my money that it is some kind of deity similar to the Shrine god, probably even more poweful than all of the previous ghosts that we have seen. For the time being, I think the author wanna focus on the sickle guy(grim reaper) first.

    Dark Gathering - Vol. 17 Ch. 67 - Triumphant Return

    You made several good points there and I agree with everything. As far as I know, Yayoi had been using ancient Taoist sorcery method using spirits to create prototype graduate, called Gu(Mandarin) or Kodoku(Japanese), a very old sorcery that was widely used as early of Jin Dynasty. So whoever...

    My guy, that group of foreigners attack Japan during late Yayoi period(300BC - 250AD) - Kofun period (250 AD - 538AD), roughly 1500 years ago, so whoever their descendants is have long been dead. Also in irl Ars Goetia, there's no clear power structure or ranking, Marbas may only be the...

    My headcannon is that Seimei already put his own countermeasures in place. I'm sure as hell that Seimei already foreseen that Sogen will pull a fast one on him and will take over his grandson body. He goes above and beyond to help defeat Taisai and even predicted Shuten Doji revival. There must...

    Dark Gathering - Vol. 17 Ch. 65 - Demise Of An Ancient Promise

    Nope they both belongs to different legend. Three Great Onryo(Vengeful Spirits) 1. Taira no Masakado (early 900? - March 25, 940) 2. Sugawara no Michizane (August 1, 845 - March 26, 903) 3. Emperor Sutoku (July 7, 1119 - September 14, 1164) Three Great Yokai(Ghosts, Demons, Monsters, etc..) 1...

    There are places like that. We called them power spot(places where spiritual power of the land naturally flows). The examples are graduate house, H castle ruin and dragon vein near Kyoto Imperial Palace.

    The grandpa is a despicable POS that's for sure. But if he refused to renew the covenant with Taisai the thousand years old grudges from all of previous brides will come to bite him sooner. With that being said I'm just happy that the Bunrei decides to take a stance against the Main Body. Hope...
